Shackles contacting RC Relocation Bracket
Anyone have any problems with their stock shackles contacting their RC relocation bracket. I called RC, they didn't have a answer or me. They advised me to try and flip the shackle backwards. Any thoughts???

The brackets were probably made with there shackle, and for most of the people getting them they probably already have a bigger shackle making it a non issues. To solve your current issue you could move it a bolt back. Worse angle but no contact

I thought the same until I watched RC install video again. They used the stock shackle as well and I use the same hole they use in there setup. I'm going to spin the shackle backwards and see if that helps. When I called RC they didn't seem to shocked when I told them there was contact with the shackle. I'm going to try spinning the stock shackle tomorrow and if that doesn't work I'll try a pair of other shackles I have. But I don't want to use the the other shackles because I don't want anymore lift.
